"For several years I have used Idons most effectively at boardroom and shop floor levels across the widest spectrum of British and European commerce and industry. In each and every case the hand-out notes created on "Idons-For-Thinking" (Version 1), have been a critical factor in effective follow-up. Indeed I believe use of this software has given my consultancy practice a serious and valuable competitive advantage. Having now worked with the much enhanced "Version 2" I am most excited by the ease of operation, range of options and sheer professional appearance of the results obtained. Thank you to all at IDON for this invaluable tool for my business."

"The use of Idon's visual tools has significantly enhanced student engagement and involvement in group discussions as well as provoking extremely favourable student feedback."

"I have used the Idon hexagon software from the very first DOS version. It is a very powerful tool for stimulating creative thinking and at the same time for bringing organisation into chaotic thought patterns. It is way ahead of any comparitive product that I have come across. This latest version has greatly enhanced user friendliness and has pushed back the boundaries of what can be achieved with this package even further. I use the software to get order and logic into my scenario planning exercises, to build system dynamics models and to plan and organise the way I want to run my consultancy business. My children have all used it very effectively to take the panic out of heavy exam schedules right through to their finals. We wouldn't be without it!"

" Idons-For-Thinking has become a powerful new tool in Ernst &Young's ability to co-develop knowledge rich solutions with its clients. The ability to brainstorm and share mental models is a very powerful way of aligning agendas and people. The new web version makes it even easier to share results."

Dr. Robin Wood, Ernst & Young

"I find the IDON methods and tools very useful in promoting learning conversations and strategic thinking in a range of settings. Their approach stands out as a real help in modernising the NHS to bring about fundamental change."

Philip Hadridge, NHS Executive

"This is a must-have for any knowledge worker in the Knowledge Economy – the software provides the tools to structure processes that are inherently chaotic, such as envisioning futures, inventing strategies and brainstorming good ideas."
